Topic: Shanty meals (Read 4138 times)

Heading to Devils lake in a couple weeks, 4 guys in a wheelhouse for 4 days doing our own thing. Lunches will be sammiches in the flipovers but what are some good meals cook able in the small camper ovens/stoves and small crockpots for breakfast and supper? Willing to go to town if necessary but would like to put together some other options besides the typical pizzas and jerky... What does everyone cook on long trips on the ice? Thinking maybe try tacos? Lasagna? Throw some suggestions out there. Eat fish couple times a week so not overly concerned with the fresh fish meals, looking for some "gourmet" ideas for 4 Neanderthals...

How many times do I gotta go through holes before I watch where I'm going? I am an amateur fisherman, but an all star minnow drowner!

Make up as much stuff as possible ahead of time and use crock pots... Also Grilling meat doesn't have much clean up.... I don't mind the cooking but the clean up stinks so try to keep it down to a minimum... Of course fried fish from the days catch will end the day nicely...

Crockpot chicken pot pie. Chunk some potatoes and carrots. Throw in frozen boneless skinless chicken breasts, season, and cover with a couple cans of cream of chicken soup and chicken broth. When you get back, throw in some frozen peas and top with a can of biscuits cut into quarters.

Brats and kielbasa sausages pre grilled sitting in beer and onion in a slow-cooker easy to heat. Add a bun and and a great simple filling meal. Can also cut them up and have with eggs in the morning. Baked potatoes are also great in a slow-cooker. Boiled eggs are great as well. Simple finger food is what we like to take very minimal clean up. And filling. Easy to snack on meals. Not a fan of soups and Chile on the ice we drink enough liquids so donít want more for meals. Have fun and be safe.

Venison sweet sausage with peppers and onions is the favorite. I pre cook the peppers and onions and keep them in cheap tupperwear (disposable). Sausages get cooked in a frying pan on the camp stove and heat up the sub rolls over the big buddy heater. I keep my fishing box (old army footlocker) stocked with paper plates and such.........all gets tossed in the trash bag for easy cleanup. Only thing I need to clean is the pan when I get home.

I've made quesadillas at home ahead of time. In alum foil they can be warmed up relatively easily on a little buddy heater or another source of heat. Just have a jar of salsa or some sour cream and good to go.
